i - "SGT. BODLEY OPERATES ENLARGER --QOshawa Times Photo Students Tell Of U.S. Visit AJAX (Staffy -- The Rotary Club of Ajax heard the story of school life in Franklin, Pa., as reported by six Ajax High School students who visited that town last week as part of the Student Exchange project of the Rotary Club. The six students, Andrea Walker, Margaret Elrick, Jo- Anne Gorman, Carl Moore, Carl Bignell and Erio Karstulovich, addressed the Ajax Rotary Club in the form of a panel question period. This panel was moderated by Rotarian Jim Rapsey, who is the principal of the high school. Mr. Rapsey fired many ques- tions at the students in an at- tempt to draw out of them their impressions of the American educational machine. MUCH IMPRESSED Student Jo-Anne Gorman said| that she was very much im- pressed with the casual teacher- student relationship in the Franklin High School. She point- ed out that at the school, 1,300 students, ranging from Grades 7 to 12, had a choice to study five subjects from a total of 15]y subjects offered. This compared with the Ajax High School stu- dent's nine subjects from a total of 15. "In the Franklin High School the teachers will go out of their way to even the social level with their students," said Miss Gorman. "Personally I did not like this relationship between students and teachers because here in Canada the students seem to have more respect for their teachers, who adopt a for- mal attitude with us," she said. When Miss Walker was ask- ed if she experienced any diffi- culty in communication with the Americans she replied: "There is a slight defect in communica- tion in that they have different names for objects." She illus- trated this by saying that in a restaurant she asked for a ser- viette but could not make her- self understood. She explained that the Americans called-- serviettes napkins. | Miss Walker described the| Pennsylvanian accent as a drawl which could have been picked up had the students stay- of the school's hours. He said that their hours were from 8.30 to 3.30 GIVES THANKS Student Margaret Elrick said that her escort was an exchange student from Paraguay, who was one of 83 South American exchange students visiting the United States at the present time, Miss Elrick said that this student was selected to visit the States for one year by writing a 5000 word autobiography in English. She said that the Franklin High School had, in her opinion, a depressed atmosphere because of its age and because it was poorly illuminated. She said that she was surprised to find out that the students' lockers had no locks, The school hooks were supplied by the school, she ex- plained. In thanking the students for their panel discussion, Rotary President Dave Wordley said that the Rotarians enjoyed themselves as much as the stu- dents in the sponsorship and or- ganization of the exchange he Rotary Clul of ..jax has been organizing such exchange visits for the past three years. This was the first time that Ajax students were exchanged with the Franklin students. PONTYPOOL PONTYPOOL -- Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Sharpe, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Harding, Toronto, spent the holiday weekend at their cot- tage here. Mr. and Mrs. Lenard McNeil, Milton, and Arnold McNeil, To- Mrs. Charles McNeil. Mr. and Mrs. Bob Reade, Niagara Falls, visited Mr. and Mrs. Wilfred Richardson over the long holiday. Miss Reta Loshaw, Preston, with her sister, Mrs. Colin Richardson Jack Woods passed away on the home of his sister, Mrs. Harry Fisher. He was laid to rest in Pontypool Cemetery on ed longer in Franklin. She said she was surprised that the Thursday afternoon. Amalda and Eileen Degros- ronto, were with their mother,| Photo Darkroom Big Police Aid By PHILIP SIMPSON PICKERING TOWNSHIP local residents, the Pickering Township Police Department has recently been equipped with a photographic darkroom that would make most professionals] envious. | The latest cameras, photo- graphic processing and crime detecting equipment has been installed in the darkroom at the Dunbarton-based Police Depart- ment. The purchase of the equip- ment followed the Pickering Township Police Commission's approval of the appointment of Sergeant Richard Bodley as| criminal investigation officer. | The cost is approximately $1600. Last year, Sergeant Bodley attended an eight-week course at the RCMP school in Ottawa on identification, fingerprints, photography and criminal in- vestigation. The officer attained a grade of 94.33 per cent on his| examination and stood third in his class. ALL ANGLES | As a result of this course,| Sergeant Bodley has become an expert in criminal photo- graphy. Whenever there is a car smash or break-in or any criminal activity in the town- ship, the officer can be seen shooting pictures from all angles so that the department can have graphic pictures that can e used as concrete evidence. Sgt. Bodley uses a Crown Graphic or Press camera with an interchangeable wide-angle lens. The latter, when installed in the camera, is especially noted for its ability to absorb scenes in confined spaces, which cannot be captured by a stan-| dard lens. "The wide-angle lens is handy in shooting bathroom murders," he said. | By attending the RCMP| school, the criminal investiga-| tions officer learned to tackle difficult photography problems| that other proficient shutterbugs| would never attempt. | For instance, Sergeant Bod- ley can easily photograph fin- gerprints that are located on the top of a dusty waterpipe that is located two inches from | the ceiling of a room. | To this officer, the mere sug- | gestion that fingerprints exist {on a piece of broken glass, for example, can result in a photo- {graph of the prints being speed- |ily despatched to Ottawa for | positive identification. With such instruction courses |given to police offieers all over {the country, one is given the im- | Monday after a long illness at| pression that no criminal is safe |these days. | The darkroom is equipped {with a variable condenser en- |larger. This machine is really | four enlargers in one. By plac-| Franklin students were instruct.|S¢liers and Mr. Best, Toronto, ing the ground glass condenser| ed to drive at school because it was taken for granted that every student would drive a car eventually. | WAS IMPRESSED | Student Erio Karstulovich was impressed with the fact that Franklin, with a population slightly larger than Ajax, sup- ported seven undertakers. He said that he was also impress- ed with the amount of recrea- tional facilities available to the townspeople. The student out- lined the program that the six students followed during their stay. This program included at- tending school, touring the dis- were with Mr and Mrs. Armand Degrosseliers over the weekend. Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Nicholson and Mrs. H. Richardson attend- |ed the funeral of their cousin, | the late Herb Thurston, at Lindsay on Thursday afternoon. George Hamilton is starting on his fifth week in St. Joseph's Hospital, Peterborough. Horace Peck visited with Ward Trotter, Apsley, over the holiday. |in different positions, the focal length of the lens is altered and (the opergtor therefore has four| |different lenses to work with. | The enlarger can blow nega-| |tives up to unbelievable dimen- | sions. | DEVELOPING TRAYS Sergeant Bodley's developing | trays are kept at a constant] temperature of 68 degrees Far-| enheit, by means of a temper-| ature control unit. With the flick of a switch the officer is assur- * (Staff) -- Unknown to many|ed that the solutions in his de- veloping trays will remain at this temperature throughout the developing process. The proces- sing trays sit in a long, shallow stainless steel sink. The darkroom's contact print- er is fully automatic and is the very latest on the market. With- in two minutes the finished prints can be dried on an elec- tronic dryer. Whenever Sergeant Bodley is not on the crime front conduct- ing investigations he is sure to be in the dark-room-laboratory exercising his criminal detec- tion knowledge. It is a good bet that when he sets his sights on the scene of a crime he will, in very short notice, be focusing his camera on the face and side profile of the criminal responsible for the crime. Let us not underestimate the efficiency of the fast-growing Pickering Township Police Department.

The stu- dent said that through this medium the parents received in- stant news of the school's activ- ities. Carl Moore told the Rotarians that during their stay in I'rank- lin they had the company of chosen escorts who showed them around the school and the town. He pointed out that Frank- lin and the neighboring Oil City, were towns which sprang up in the old oil boom days. He said that many of the older homes in the area had as many as 30 rooms. One house that the stu- dents visited had a ball room on its third floor, he said.
